Saturday January 10, 2015 2:56 PM, IANS
New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi Saturday congratulated the people of Jammu and Kashmir for reposing faith in democracy by turning out in large numbers during las month's assembly elections.
Modi said that the state, which at one point of time did not record even two percent votes, saw a 65-70 percent turnout.
